Cursed by a ruthless enchanter to see, hear and think, but never to move or speak, Sir Griffin de Beauford suffers the long, lonely centuries trapped in stone...until an unexpected kiss from a fair maiden breathes new life into his soul --- and his body. Emily Porter, a recently divorced conservator at the Art Institute of Chicago, is charged with the restoration of a statue of a medieval English knight. Breaking curses was not part of the job description. And yet, here he is, the man of her dreams come to life. But the modern age tries Griffin’s patience and pride, and Emily is a prime suspect in the investigation of the missing sculpture. In a complicated world, can they find their way to a fairy-tale ending?
